@@Alex-jt1rz It's really all subjective. But since you're asking me, I'll give my personal feelings on the matter. I haven't gone back to Makers Mark in years. But I still drink Wild Turkey 101 regularly. I also drink plenty of Elijah Craig, Knob Creek, and Four Roses Small Batch. There's nothing wrong with Makers Mark, but I don't enjoy drinking it neat as much as I do these others. For some, I'm sure it's their absolute favorite. And more power to them!

You guys have broadened my horizons . . . . thanks.

I’ve drank bourbon plenty of times in my life, but just to drink. I’ve never sat with one trying to pick out the various notes. So with a bit of curiosity I picked up a bottle of the Michter’s because how you guys ranted and raved over it. I sniffed, sipped, sniffed, sipped. Turns out I’m not very good at it. The only notes I could distinctly pick up were cream, caramel, and vanilla, with a little oak. One bottle later and my wife is bailing me out of jail for allegedly getting into a fist fight with my neighbor’s inflatable Santa. I’m no quitter. Got another bottle ready to go. Any advice?

Love Eagle Rare. Woodford is solid - have you every tried it side by side with Old Forester? You may be surprised. They have the same mash bill. Aged close to the same amount of time. And half of what becomes Woodford actually comes from the Old Forester distillery (column stills), with the other half coming from Woodford's pot stills (if memory serves).

Thanks to this video I ordered my first bottle of whiskey, I went with Four Roses Small Batch. I look forward to enjoying it and hopefully become whiskey drinker.

“You and I were tricked into drinking Makers, last week...nuhnono it was yesterday!” Must’ve been some good shit!

The best whiskey is the whiskey you like it and drinking it the way you like. What a great quote and so true.

I want to see Daniel's three different decanters. That's a brilliant idea.

This is interesting! I also have three (because of the three major kinds of whiskies) differently shaped decanters. Mine are filled with Evan Williams Black, Bushmills Original and J&Bs partly because of the same reason, partly because I'd like to put the mixing-stuff into fancy containers. Congratulations to us both for this very clever and aesthetically pleasing idea!

"I think you're having a stroke" @ 18:47. One of the best one-liners I've heard in this context.

As a fairly new Bourbon drinker I would have to agree with the top 2 selections. Possibly in the reverse order as I enjoy Eagle Rare a tad more than Buffalo Trace but it is a bit more expensive. Both are hard to find in my area. I live in a wealthy retirement area of Florida and all the rich elderly people buy up all the good booze before I can get off work.

great video guys ! I am Canadian, and Buffalo Trace was my first ever bourbon, up here its every where for 34 bucks CDN as is Wild turkey 101..and thats right up my alley, the woodford and Elijah craig are about 50 but so good.. cheers !

Love the channel guys. I only have a couple glasses a week so I tend to go with a lot of the single barrel stuff....I have never had 9/10 of these definitely gonna try buffalo trace and wild turkey 101.

I think you are having a stroke. Classic. Back in the '70's, a good high school friend introduced me to Dickel and McKenna. My gramps favorite drink was a Manhattan. Thank you for a wonderful review!

Great channel, keep it coming guys. The 1st time I drank Eagle Rare I thought it was a fine sipping rum it’s so delicately sweet, but as you say, not so much it defies bourbon. That’s not to say all fine rum is sweet, some are clean and sharp and more like cognac. In my opinion, rums vary the most of any spirit in flavor and profile, but that’s a different story. I got 4 bottles of Eagle Rare from a famous outlet store for $27 per and thought I’d won the lottery! The Four Roses is wonderful and stepping up to the single barrel version is worth it, but I’ve seen the bottle you reviewed for under $30 and that’s all one can ask for. Elijah Craig barrel strength is just as you described and might offer every thing a bourbon can be without favoring one flavor profile over another. Maker’s is just boring for me and over marketed, but to each their own. Buffalo Trace is of course, classic. Of them all, Four Roses (more so the single barrel version) is best overall, Buffalo Trace, then Elijah. It’s difficult to rank Eagle Rare because it defies bourbon a bit (I know I said it didn’t, oops) and it is dangerously delicious. it is the absolute smoothest sipping, digestif candy bourbon that I often enjoy in replacement of dessert. I like drinking my dessert. Cheers!

Love the channel gents. I, like most others, want to know more about whiskeys and bourbons but are intimidated by all the verbage and huge selection. I have to say Thank You for sharing your knowledge because now, I wont feel like some underage drinker just grabbing something from the shelf just to escape the pressure of " I hope this is a good one". Your right, the best whiskey is the one you like. Because of your channel, my collection grows by the day. Thanks again guys.

Haven't had any of the other Bourbons on that list but I think I got to go out and get another bottle of buffalo trace. I've tried half a dozen or so Bourbons. Rowan's creek. Noah's mill, deckles eight year bourbon, and I was lucky enough to score a bottle of old Rip van Winkle on Christmas Eve last year. Just got a bottle of four roses smallbatch today.

I'm so glad to have found your channel this week! My mom introduced us kids to Wild Turkey 101 when she was making hot totties for us when I was a teenager. Gave us all a half a shot for shits 'n giggles. I'm the middle kid--shy, socially awkward, and adverse to risks. So when I reacted with, "Yum! Tastes like popcorn!" amid siblings hacking and gagging, her response was, "You're not supposed to like it!" Apparently Wild Turkey was her go to throughout the 80's--she was a logger/bartender/restauranteer. It's all I drank for the last decade. Now I'm branching out and trying the whiskey world, and I love finding content to steer me in one direction or another. Because risk aversion. ;P

Current favorite is Eagle Rare, but it is very hard to find locally. Fell in love with Bulliet just a few days ago, so number 2 for me. I haven't had Buffalo Trace in a long time, as I was tasting others, but was my favorite before Eagle Rare, so it's my number 3.
